Charlamagne tha Godis responding after PresidentDonald Trumpcalled him a "racist sleazebag" and "low-IQ individual." The morning radio host addressed the president's critique of him in a segment called "Donkey of the Day." The president made the remarks a day after the "The Breakfast Club" host appeared on "My View with Lara Trump". Lara Trump is the Republican National Committee co-chair and is married to the president's son, Eric Trump. Charlamagne tha God, whose real name is Lenard McKelvey, has become a key feature in pop culture and co-hosts the popular radio show. During the appearance on Saturday, Aug. 2, Lara Trump askedCharlamagnehow he would rate Trump's second term so far. He responded: "I wouldn't give it a good rating, simply because the least of us are still being impacted by the worst." While admitting he's set to benefit from tax provisions in the president's tax-and-spending law, he said, "There's going to be so many people that's hurt by that bill." He added, "Anything that takes away Medicaid from people and will put people in a worse financial situation than they were previously in, I'm not for." The president later lashed out at Charlamagne in a Truth Social post on Sunday, Aug. 3. "He's a low-IQ individual, has no idea what words are coming out of his mouth and knows nothing about me or what I have done," wrote the president. Charlamagne spoke about the president's remarks on "The Breakfast Club"in his segment entitled "Donkey of the Day," shrugging off Trump's ire without much fuss. On Monday, Aug. 4, Charlamagne said, "I don't care. He called me a sleazebag. I looked up the definition of sleazebag, says it's 'a disgusting or despicable person.' Depending on who you ask, that may apply to me." He also said that the Trump administration is using an "authoritative strategy" against anyone who speaks out against it. He also went on to say, "With his reaction to what I said on Lara Trump shows how authoritarians will attempt to bully people into pushing false narratives. " He continued to make fun of the president's remarks, adding: "He said I'm 'a low-IQ individual.' I don't know, I've never taken an IQ test." As he closed out the segment, Charlamagne offered some advice to the commander-in-chief. "I don't care who's in the White House," he said. "I want America to succeed. Believe it or not, I'm rooting for you, but I need you focused and right now, you're not focused. Ok? We need you focused on two things: the economy and Epstein. I need you to keep the promises of a great economy and the promises of transparency with the Epstein files." It is not out of the ordinary for him to criticize political figures, he told Lara Trump. When PresidentJoe Bidenwas in office, he said he subjected the former president to "the same hell" when he disagreed with his actions. Michelle Del Rey is a trending news reporter at USA TODAY.
